That's the spin the Windows world likes to keep saying but there are a WHOLE LOT of people that write viruses for ego gratification, proof of concept, etc. What better way to make your name than by breeching the Mac OS?

PCs are good for things besides doorstops. I own two and use one as part of my home theater rig for streaming and editing high def video transport streams. And remember, Dartfish only runs on PCs.
